The focus should be on your preparation, experience, and aims rather than a discussion of the trends or the importance of information in general.

Ph.D. applicants should provide letters which speak directly to their ability and potential to perform academic research at the doctoral level.We encourage your recommenders to submit their letters online; please follow the instructions in the online application.
